I started a SECRET FaceBook Group (closed, nobody can see you are there) For July 2015 people only. I hope this can expand as a individualized community so we can help each other out through the same stages of this journey. I hope you can join. (1) The only way to join is to send email invites, not a link. You will need to private-message me your email address, the one linked to your FaceBook profile. An email invitation for the FaceBook group will be sent to you. I hope you are doing well, and hope to see you soon!

I sent an email invite. Please let me know if you have trouble getting in. Please also try to commit to bringing in at least one more person. We are having trouble with PM'ing masses of people on the site. Thanks!

Good luck, everybody. Don't forget to message me about the secret FB group for JULY ONLY!

I lost 90 lbs total by the time I was 6 months post-op. I haven't lost an ounce since then. I just celebrated my first year and am doing everything right. I was called the model patient for so many reasons, but the numbers are not budging. I am a super-disciplined person, I eat very slowly, have no emotional relationship with food, and cook everything myself. I am really at a loss. I moved away from my doctor's office after 7 months, and lost all support. No dietitian, no post-op appointments, no blood-work, nothing. Mostly, I mourn the feedback. As my pouch adjusted, I have been able to easily get an entire yogurt down without much effort. I have started adding 5 cherries to my Breakfast yogurts... I am obsessing over my food intake, worrying if I am eating too much (no weight loss) or too little (body in starvation mode). I have no way of knowing unless I get real answers from real professionals. I am tired of researching and doctoring myself. I am tired of putting together advice from people who have been through it. I really need to shake up my system. I feel like I'm losing time, and that I have only 6 more months to lose weight for real. I am 30 lbs from my goal, and have no hope. I'm not sure if I'm looking for more advice right now. I just need some feedback from long timers. I think I want to hear about people who lost weight way after their surgery. Maybe I'll be able to stop pressuring myself to catch only this train before it leaves the station.

Starting year two, feeling hopeless
latido replied to latido's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I've added fruits, but then people told me "No more than 30 carbs per day" and that it was too much. Too much misinformation and little support is driving me bonkers. I'm not accepting that my body is hovering around 175, as I am only 5.4 in height. -
My apologies. It looks like the only way to join is to send email invites, not a link. You will need to message me your email address, the one linked to your FaceBook profile. Link doesn't work

Revision in ten days. . Very nervous
latido replied to tweedle's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I used Google calendar to organize my diet schedule. Example: 7:00 am, Vitamins, 8:00 am, Protein drink., 11:00 am protein snack... etc. I set up a ten-minute warning alert. After three months, I was able to go without the calendar app. -

No, nobody can see that you joined the group, not even your FB friends. And even if you have your FB profile linked to Bariatric Pal, nobody can see which SECRET groups you are in. Also, you can message me your FB name and delete it from this topic so the connection won't be made, preserving anonymity on Bariatric Pal
